"Animals and Nudes" is a photo book by American photographer Peter Hujar. He was mainly active in New York from the 1970s to the 1980s, and published several photo books during his lifetime. However, after his death from AIDS in 1987, numerous exhibitions have been held and numerous photo books have been published, and he is an artist whose reputation continues to grow. Perhaps influenced by his upbringing, in which he was abandoned by his parents and raised by his grandmother, his works mainly focus on portraits, landscapes, and still life with themes such as "life," "death," "sex," and "love." His works, captured at an intimate distance, deeply depict the photographer's love and dignity for human beings, and he is respected by famous photographers such as Richard Avedon and Ryan McGinley, and is also known to have had a close relationship with the well-known essayist Susan Sontag. This book is a collection of works published by Twin Palm, led by book designer Jack Woody, who has produced many excellent books, and as the title suggests, it is a book that contains animals, nudes, and portraits.
